I've met God across his long walnut desk with his diplomas hanging on the wall behind him, and God asks me, Why Why did I cause so much pain Didn't I realize that each of us is a sacred, unique snowflake of special unique specialness Can't I see how we're all manifestations of love I look at God behind his desk, taking notes on a pad, but God's got this all wrong.
